This lowku is great. Tis sad that the event had to happen in order to produce such a brilliant poem, but that is art, isn't it? We go on. We do make art out of the painful times and it does help. thank you for sharing.

Hi Don and Vicki, This is a great little Lowku poem. It certainly fulfil the criteria. Nothing could be more vile than killing the innocent and 9/11 was the worst of its kind. A poignant 5-7-5 that understandably won the contest. Very well written. All the best. Ulla:)))

I do so agree with you. What happened on Sept 11th was an unspeakable act of cruelty. And as you say, innocent people pay the price.
Unfortunately, things like this happen all over the world all the time. To our politicians, we are just figures, not human beings.
Wonderful poem, especially considering you only used fifteen syllables.
Thanks for sharing and caring.

Your powerful poem touches the heart of the reader. Your poem meets the criteria and speaks to everyone. That dreadful day I came out of the shower, the tv was on, and I thought I was watching a violent movie. Great job summing up the ordeal.
